The daily morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1883-1899, 1887-12-01

FROM recent editorial remarks in
the Oreg0niGh and the Ne,rs it ap-
pears that the editors of these news
papers realize and fully appreciate
the folly of personalities and squab-
bles. In this they set good exam
pie to newspaper men throughout the
northwest. Straightforward criticism
or clever retort is always in order, but
the less iangling and snarling in news
Dapers the better all round.

EXPERIENCE VS.. INEXPERIENCE

1t is matter of regret that in intro
ducing Hoods Sarsaparilla, its proprie-
tors are obliged to overcome a certain
distrust by some people who have I'M
fortunately bought worthless COM
pounds mixed by persons ignorant OF
pharmacy. Messrs. C. /. Hood & Co.
are reliable pharmacists of long exper-
fence, and they make no claims for
Hoods Sarsaparilla which cannot be
substantiated by the strongest proof.
And we say to those who lack confidence
read the unsolicited testimonials in favor
of Hoods Sarsaparilla, and then prove
its merits by actual personal test. We
are confident you will not be disap-
pointed, but will find it a medicine OF
peculiar curative value, which can be
implicitly relied upon.

At the recent meeting of the G. A. r.
after Ex-Governor Fairchild and others
had paid tribute to the memory of the
late General Logan, General George Z.
Bryant, of Madison, arose, and in the
following simple and beautiful words,
which brought tears to the eyes of the
listeners. expressed his deep feeling of
reverent admiration for his old friend:
Commander and Comrades: From
1861 to the day of his death, had the
honor of the personal acquaintance and
the personal friendship of John A.
Logan. Great as lawyer, an orator
and statesman; pure as patriot and
a citizen. In the hour of battle, when
the gray lines charged close up to the
union blues, Logan was a flame of fire.
Comrades, when the last man of the
Grand Army of the Republic has passed
from earth; when the sons of veterans
shall be white with age; when the des-
TIMES of this Republic are guided by our
loyal grandsons, and great-grandsons,
John A. Logan will be spoken of as the
first of the volunteer soldiers in the war
of the great Rebellion.

Lieutenant Greedy has made flying
leap over the heads of one thousand
army officers and landed in the official
chair of the Signal Bureau, with the
title of Brigadier General of U. S. Army.
This is plainly in recognition of his SER
vices at the North Pole, which were no
services at all. The few unimportant
observations that the survivors brought
back with them as the sole result of that
awful period of suffering, death and
untold horror, are wholly insufficient to
justify such promotion as the reward.
The Chicago Herald says that since
Fred Grant was made Colonel in con-
sideration of his great services as the
son of his father, no promotion in army
circles has been so bewilderingly sudden
and unaccountable.

The Art Interchange of January Doth,
gives as an extra-colored supplement,
two very charming studies of birds.
One of these shows two little songsters
amid the bloom of peach blossoms. this
design being arranged for hand-screen
"a now fashionable accessory for a
lady's toilet. The other shows spirited
sketch of two birds, one of which is,
apparently, challenging the other to
combat. This little sketch is instinct
with life, and will make a charming
design for sofa cushion, valentine,
souvenir, panel-in fact it may be
adapted to variety of decorative uses.
Another supplement in black and white
is an admirably drawn sketch of a
female figure, entitled Morning."
which is designated for screen-panel
decoration. This shows tall Burne-
Jones like figure, holding a spray of
lilies, with birds circling about her.
The frieze of this is q sun with birds
flying across it. This is the first of three
decorative panels. The other two
(Which will also be figure sketches) are
entitled "Noon and might" AL
though these are effective, they are
easily executed. and are designed especi-
ally for amateurs. They can be carried
out either in painting, embroidery or
crayou. Other designs in this issue
show some admirable compositions,
suitable for valentines. In one poor
little love finds himself caught in 3
heart; q decorative border of carnations
helps to make this a pretty little sketch.
In another little cupid sits in corner
gazing complacently at the roses, thorns
and cobwebs which fill the upper part
of the design, and which are symbol
cal in most instances of the results of
his Vaccinations. Some charming
designs of doyleys are also given, and
there is also strong study of Breton
peasant women. All of the designs
mentioned are accompanied by full
directions for carrying them out in
painting or embroidery. The Notes
and Queries department, as usual. is
replete with valuable information. given
in answer to correspondents. on art
work of all kinds. There is also some
interesting information on the etiquette
of church weddings. To the Library
Department has been added an especi-
ally attractive feature-that of Literary
Chat--in which very able pen dis

Russia of To-day" is the title of an
important and timely paper, by Albert
T. Heard, in Halper's Magazine for
March. The author has made care
full study on the spot of the peculiar in
situations of Russia, and sketches the
growth of the Nihilist movement, ex-
planning why the peasantry, who form
four-fifths of the population, are pro-
foundly loyal to the Car, in spite of all
their wrongs. A surprising portion of
the article is the account of the mir"
that anomalous institution which, under
the oppression of despotic govern
ment, has for centuries afforded to the
peasantry local administration of a
purely democratic character, almost ac-
comprising the communistic results
advocated by Count Tolstoi. Mr..
Heard surmises that deliverance from
threatening revolution and anarchy
must spring from the enthusiastic pat
riotism and intense nationality of the
people who are destined to crush the
rabid extravagances of the Nihilists,

How Italy's Pigmy Republic Maintained
Its Independence In Days Gone BY.
The little republic of San Marine.
which lies entirely hemmed in by ItAi
ian territory, half way between the
Apennines and the Adriatic, and in q
sense belongs to Italy" since its half
independent existence Is maintained
only by the tolerance of the Italian
Government, once had narrow escape
from being joined to the Papal States.
Alberoni, an ambitious and intriguing
priest, had advanced himself in the
service of Pope Benedict XIV, to the
grade of Archbishop. and then of Car
dinal, and finally became Prime Minis
ter. Then his intrigues brought him
under the suspicion of his master, and
he was degraded and banished. Re-
stored partially to favor. he was given
foreign pension. and then made
Papal Legate of Romagna. In this po-
sition he tried to bring San Marino
under the dominion of the Pope. H
artfully gained over to his purpose
some of the principal inhabitants of the
republic, and finally fixed the day on
which the people were to swear allegi-
ance to the sovereign under whose pro-
tec+ion they had placed themselves. On
the day appointed, Alberoni rode up
che mountain OF San Marine with bis
suite, and was received at the door Of
the cathedral by the priests and chief
and thence conducted to
his seat under canopy. to hear high
mass and TIE DelIDl sung. Unfortu-
nately for ALberoni and his schemeA
the ceremony began with the word
Libertas- liberty. This one word had
such an effect upon the people thas
they rose up, fell upon Alberoni and
his attendants, drove them out of the
church and made them scamper down
the steep mountain like sheep. The

How to Manage Crowds.

There is no doubt that Sir Charles
Warren has discovered the secret of
success in managing crowds by the
simple expedient of stopping traffic on
wheels. There was never the least
crush or difficulty in getting about,
either in the morning or the evening
of jubilee day, because the roadway,
added to the footway, gave ample
space for the largest crowds to move
on. To those who remember the
frightfu1 crush on the last occasion of
any illuminations on the same scale
the day of the Prince of Wales mar
rage in 1863-the contrast was as de-
lightful as it was unexpected. On
evening, when the car
rage traffic was not stopped, there
was a jam in all the important thor
oughfares. -L0azdO7s Truth.
